we'll repaid for coming Mr.. Stoddard is a de-
lightful talker, and his narrative goes on with
rapid succession of pictures, and without one
line that is dull or undressing in it during
the two hours Of its continuance. The lecture
began with scenes of the boyh God of the great
master of human pathos-the house in which he
was born: the streets of London hs knew so we'll
and had described with such graphic force
and Guaintness; country lanes and spots
made know to hundreds of thousands Of read
ers in his novels and sketches. His Pictures of
Italy" were wildly portrayed. and the lecturer,
in showing Venice the Queen of the Adratic
quoted largely from Dickens's description. He
carried the audience with Dickens on his travels
through Scotland, Ireland and tho United
State. The last days of the novelist were
torching,y described, especially when Mr. Stod
dard supplemented his own words descriptive of
Dickens death by those of the novelist in de-
scribing the death of Little Paul il ''Dombey
and Son."

1t is the earnest desire of the people
generally and especially that portion
of our citizens who are owners of horses,
that commodious water tanks be built
at the base of each hill in the city for
the accommodation of the travelling
public. The one now at the base of the
Spafford hill is in need of repairs and
should be attended to. A great many
people drive around on that hill just
because they are accommodated at that
water tank. The result is, the tank is
dry most Of the time. Let our city
fathers take this matter in hand and see
that suitable water tanks are put In
where most convenient. One hundred
dollars thus invested will be of lasting
benefit.
